    Cooking up seven corndogs seems like more effort than making a quick meal.

    I don’t even have a corndog cooker.

        If I’m going to the trouble of picking corn and catching a dog, I’m not going to eat them raw like some heathen.

        Wait, people make their own corn dogs from scratch? I assumed people just bought them frozen and heated them up in the oven or air fryer.

                Lol well I’m glad it motivated you.

                Cooking is just such a chore. I’ve never enjoyed it. Now and then I get inspired to try a recipe. It never ends all that great and I inevitably am left with an annoying mess to clean up after. No, “cleaning as I go”, doesn’t work for me either. No matter how much people try to get me to do it, it never pans out for me. I absolutely despise it. It’s like getting teeth pulled.

                What I eat either consists of prepackaged meals, or frozen meat/veggies that I heat up in the microwave/air fryer, or takeout. I’m in my late 20s and it has worked out for me so far so I don’t feel the need to change either.

      An air fryer is a game changer. Unbelievably convenient for preparing 7 corndogs and other lazy meals like grilled salmon filet and asparagus.

        I’ve heard this… I have a massive dehydrator for jerky and dog treats, and yet I have no kitchen appliances lol. Maybe I should adult more and splash out.
